White Horse Core Compendium Quickstart

Step into a universe where survival is more than numbers on a sheet—it’s about holding on to who you are when the world itself twists against you. White Horse: Core Compendium Quickstart is your entry point into a game of cosmic horror, corruption, and transformation. This streamlined guide introduces you to the foundations of the system: roll attributes, forge characters, and plunge into a story where obedience, identity, and resistance are tested at every turn. Inside these pages you’ll find simple, accessible rules that put your choices front and center. New mechanics such as Latex Resistance (a reimagining of armor class), Vitality Points, Identity, and Impulse bring freshness to familiar play while pushing players to face unique dangers. Shards and gems—strange items of power—add tactical depth and narrative mystery, rewarding exploration while hinting at greater powers still hidden in the Core Compendium. The Quickstart includes two races and two classes—streamlined yet flavorful options that allow you to dive in right away. You’ll face husks, skeletons, and spiderlings in tense encounters before clashing with the Corrupted Carrot, a latex-tainted guardian whose glossy sheen hides deadly snares. And if you survive, a glimpse of something far more dangerous awaits: the arrival of a being clad in unyielding latex, bearing a weapon unlike any other. This book is designed for fast play and immediate immersion. With just a handful of dice and a group of friends, you can learn the rules in minutes and start your first adventure in the Lethonian Latex Academy. For game masters, the Handler’s Guide offers practical support to shape encounters, apply Binding Checks, and manage corruption without slowing the action. The Quickstart is not the full game—it is a gateway. In the upcoming White Horse Core Compendium, players will unlock new classes, expanded gear, a fully fleshed-out shard and gem system, dozens of zones to explore, and the deeper truth of Ixonia’s looming shadow. For now, this book gives you everything you need to taste the dance between survival and transformation, where every decision can carry a cost and every victory may echo with corruption. Will you resist the tide, or let it claim you?
